“RESIST, INSIST, PERSIST, ENLIST.” – HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON

Hillary Calling!

The State Department, via spokesman P.J. Crowley, promised updates over the weekend as stories were expected to develop. No updates have been forthcoming from State, but foreign ministries (presumably not in national turkey comas) have provided some insights into the kind of Thanksgiving weekend our lovely and hard-working Mme. Secretary is having.

“Over telephone talks with Secretary (of State) Hillary Clinton, we agreed that through the drill, we will be able to …send a clear message to the North in relation to the recent situation,” a foreign ministry spokesman said.

The Japanese and US top diplomats agreed Thursday to set up a meeting with their South Korean counterpart to coordinate their policies towards North Korea, news reports said. Japanese Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara and US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton agreed to arrange the meeting for December in Washington, Japan’s Kyodo News reported. During their 15-minute phone conversation, Maehara and Clinton confirmed the need to enhance their cooperation in the wake of North Korea’s attack on a South Korean island Tuesday, and its uranium enrichment programme, the Japanese Foreign Ministry said.

BEIJING (AFP) – Beijing held phone talks with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday on the tense situation following North Korea’s deadly bombardment of a South Korean island, the Chinese foreign ministry said.

Under the surface there is an unrelated story that was probably the one Crowley was expecting to break over the weekend when he spoke to the press on Wednesday. My opinion is that these leaks are dangerous, violate national and international security, and should be stopped. Assange should be in prison for doing this. These are not old, expired communications. They are recent, sensitive, and protected. His actions are criminal. Your freedom of speech ends where it endangers the safety of others. Wikileaks is dangerous.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – The United States raced Friday to contain the fallout from the looming release of millions of sensitive diplomatic cables by the WikiLeaks, warning governments around the world of embarrassing disclosures.

US diplomats headed to foreign ministries in hopes of staving off anger if the whistleblower website puts out the leaked cables, which are internal messages that lack the niceties that diplomats generally voice in public.

The documents, the third tranche since WikiLeaks published 77,000 classified US files on the Afghan conflict in July, could affect some of the most sensitive US relationships including with Russia, Israel and Turkey.

So it appears that Mme. Secretary’s holiday weekend is not free of work or concerns. She is spending portions of it on the phone, but we hope that she is making the calls from the comfort of home and otherwise enjoying some downtime with her family.

I’m still waiting to see what happens next with wikileaks before coming to conclusions, but that is a fun slideshow theme! Here’s another one of Hillary calling, via my contact page. S4H, maybe you could embed the image here if you get the chance.

Well, some of these wikileaks releases have been pretty dangerous stuff. These particular ones might amount to be more embarrassing than anything else, but we do not need to have added challenges to diplomacy, especially with purportedly Turkey and Russia involved.

The were just saying on the news that this document dump is so huge that they won’t know what is in it for awhile. Probably worse than knowing your cable is in it is the suspense of wondering whether/when it will show up.

You know, I am not really sure about this since the troops regularly salute her as SOS .. when she is boarding her plane and when her plane taxis and takes off. I have pictures of that. But a former POTUS does not salute a current SOS I don’t think.

Meant to say up there that officers also salute her and her plane- guys with many stars on their shoulders and scrambled eggs on their visors!

From what I am reading, she has certain people on the edges of their chairs while she goes about her business with huge cheerful smiles, and he is plain talking in some very deep-pocket influential circles. I had already been hearing this for months from state parties.

Does Bill speak plainly to anyone who isn’t influential and well off? And hasn’t watching Hillary Clinton move been the Democratic party’s guilty pleasure for a while now? They love watching her doing the diplomacy dance, but no one will ever admit it. 😉

We’ll see what the future brings. This counrty has it bad for incumbants, but these are unusual times.

Je ne suis pas sûr d’être capable de l’enregistrer et de le poster!

I subscribe to this channel and of course I’ll be in front of the TV to watch “L’amour au pouvoir.” I’m very impatient.

“The drama of a couple groups that must celebrate cohesion despite differences of opinion and pressure of debilitating scandals. It addresses the issue of marriage in the politics in a transition period between the time the American women could accomplish great things in devoting themselves body and soul to their husbands and when the Americans may finally be ready to give the Super Powers to a woman.”

I am thinking that maybe the TV channel will eventually post it. It wouldn’t have subtitles, but I can understand French and EVERYBODY understands Bill and Hillary pics and videos. Everybody here, anyway.

I already have a video about the Clinton couple (92 minutes – 2008) from the French TV, but the file is very, very large.
So I’ll look for a place to host it.
I prefer not to post links directly on the blogs (Post these videos may not be very legal!)
If you are interested, send me a request to: my nickname (with a “_” between the two words) at hotmail.com

"... ratify the Law of the Sea Convention, which has provided the international framework for exploring these new opportunities in the Arctic. We abide by the international law that undergirds the convention, but we think the United States should be a member, because the convention sets down the rules of the road that protect freedom of navigation, provide maritime security, serve the interests of every nation that relies on sea lanes for commerce and trade, and also sets the framework for exploration for the natural resources that may be present in the Arctic." -HRC, 06-03-12, Tromso Norway
